138 to 132 on 5950 list this week! Fingers crossed the next update will be a delivery if the 200 units next week materialise. In the meantime I got impatient and “upgraded” my 2600k to a Ryzen 3100 - and yes it is quicker at stock and I have not overclocked anything yet! This little 3100 is going to get thrashed before the 5950 turns up (next week?). Now just the GPU to sort as my order for a 6800xt was cancelled! Come on 6970 vapour x, old faithful for so long, you can do it for a bit more....

Reading that update page :rolleyes:

"To keep customers updated our product manager “Gibbo” is posting regularly on the Overclockers FORUM"

"5900X – 85pc coming from a non-official distributor and these cost us about £10 more than what we have sold them for. However, we are happy to lose £10 a CPU to get customers their orders ASAP."
Considering they were sold for £30-40 over rrp, losing £10 profit per CPU is hardly a mega sacrifice!
Rubbish!!!!

I was 30th last Friday, a guy who was 16th got a 5800x his week. Meaning I'm <14th now. So you're at least 16 places lower than you were. I got a 6800XT now (still 300th for a 3080 eagle) all I need is this damn processor now!!
Currently stuck with a fx8350 and a 1050ti :(
Strange I was 14th and am still 14th this week. Strange queue if 16th has his

+plus all the peripherals for my flight sims mfds pedals blah blah blah

tubing and kit fittings etc on order now fans in the bag, need to get a couple rads yet not sure what ones to go for as yet

near to retirement now so treating my self to a real nice build,

i just enjoy building and have been quiet for a while, hope it plays wow lol.

Wow very nice! That'll be a very sweet set up once it's done! And you're dead right to treat yourself!

I'm doing my second ever build, and going kind of all out as well, although not as all out as you :eek:

I do astrophotography so photo and video editing but want a really good gaming system too. Need a solid multithreaded capable chip that handles single threaded game performance too, 5950x was a no brainier.

- Lian Li O11 Dynamic XL (all the rage these days!)
- Corsair 850 PSU
- Ryzen 9 5950x
- Asus Crosshair VIII Hero X570
- 2 x 16GB 3600MHz G.Skill Trident Z Neo
- Holding out for an Asus 3080 (quite tickled by the 3090 too but just out of my price range)
- 2 x 1TB M.2 drives (980 Pro), 2 x 2TB HDD (WD Green)

- Custom front panel dual loop distro plate with 2 x D5 EK pumps, Acrylic hard line tubes and monoblock and fittings and rads and 2 colours of coolant all from EK
- 7 x 120mm and 2 x 140mm case fans by Arctic, and an Aquacomputer octo fan control hub

First time doing a custom loop, bloody expensive when you add it all up, but why not treat yourself after this horrible year we've had!

Just went from 40-something to 11th! For the 5600x My hopes of getting it before Xmas have been re-ignited. Some comfort for the gpu shaped hole that'll be in my system but can't complain.

"Hey guys, just thought Id let yall know I just got shipping notification of my 5800x despatched from Bolton but they haven't updated their 5000 series faq page so keep an eye on your emails"
Later in the page he said he was 14th. That was posted Wednesday.
Either he's lying or overclocker just haven't updated us. Hard to believe he's lying whilst waiting for overclockers to send us our que emails
Bolton is where another retailer is based. Maybe he meant he was 14th on their list as I was 14th on OC and still am
